Donald Trump stands out historically in one way. He has demilitarized the US military more quickly than any other political leader in US history. A full blown pacifist would have struggled to throw away weapons faster than he has.

OTD in 1916 USA recognized Greenland as part of Denmark. Trump's plans to annex it have caused people like Mearsheimer a lot of mental anguish as USA, the country they oppose, acts like Russia, the country they appease
"Poland was basically a made up country for a few years" is an excellent advertisement that this person is too stupid to have a serious discussion with. Like really, the fact it had been its own country for centuries before being occupied and has its own distinctive language should be a giveaway
Russia’s Rassvet satellites (by Bureau 1440) already provide two 1-1.5-hour communication windows per day over Ukraine. Russia can use this to control naval, strike, and reconnaissance drones for its attacks on Ukraine. 📷: Coverage of Rassvet satellites during a pass over Ukraine, July 31, 2026.
OTD in 1991 president G H Bush made the chicken Kiev speech in which he urged Ukraine to stay in USSR. He was called a coward by members of Republican party for being soft on Russia. Back when the party of Reagan didn't fellate KGB agents.
Every year on August 1 at 5 PM CET, Warsaw comes to a standstill for the symbolic "W Hour." Poland marked the 82nd anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising as sirens sounded nationwide and the country paused to honor those who fought and died in the 1944 revolt.

So the USA is going to institute a land blockade against Iran? I am personally so excited to see US ground forces go back into Afghanistan--let alone see them try and start patrolling in Pakistan and Turkmenistan. The US is so screwed it is now writing science fiction.

🤡❗️Russia needs to reach Ukraine's western borders: "SVO" will definitely not end in 2026, — Russian State Duma.
If you cannot accept that what Trump has done over the last year and a half is starve Ukraine of air defense, and put off any new aid for as long as possible, so Putin can terrorize Ukraine from the air for as long as possible--you cannot accept reality.

SIKORSKI: There are myths in the West that Russian oligarchs will come and sort out Putin, put pressure on him to end the war. In Russia, it’s political authority who decides who’s rich and who isn’t, who gets business, and who gets terminated or falls out of a window.

Why platform a Russian propagandist who’s been wrong about everything? Claiming Russia will capture Donbas by the end of the year is just another delusion. It’s July 2026 and Russia is still bogged down fighting for Chasiv Yar. Pathetic
Sven-Erik Volberg@volberg.bsky.social · last wk.It’s day 1,616 of John Mearsheimer insisting that russia is winning its 3 day war. War he previously insisted wouldn’t happen because a Great Power like russia is much too strategically rational to do any of this. The "great esteemed realist scholar" is still introduced as an expert on said war.
"Russia's invasion becomes a 'war in Ukraine.' Moscow's neo-imperial bid for a sphere of influence, where neighbors are to be murdered until they give up sovereignty, becomes "security interests." Ukraine's refusal to be massacred morphs into an obstacle to peace," writes Andrew Chakhoyan.
